Thanks for the update Todd; unfortunately it wasn't the news I was hoping for.

I hate to be anal about semantics, but.. When they say mid-late April, does that mean when they will start shipping, so in a sense we should have them in our hands in May? Or we should have a complete\finish product in our hands by mid-late April?

Hi All,
The way I understand it they should be shipping to me in mid April and then to you. As promised all of my orders will then ship to you via Fed Ex 2nd Day.

Thanks for the info. It's going to be interesting to see how many you actually get in that first shipment and how long it takes before the subsequent shipments come.
That goes for all the other retailers as well.
EDIT: Sennheiser HD 800 Factory Tour
Or maybe not!

Todd is it too late to get on the preorder bandwagon?

Just pre-ordered my HD800 from Todd today! I doubt Amazon will get it before TTVJ, but I will cancel my preorder from them when they finally release a date. I'd rather support a Head-Fi sponsor anyway. I think Todd has one or two left now in the first batch of 50 that he ordered, so you better preorder quick!

Why would I be waiting? His first order was for 50 and then he placed two more orders, each of 10. I just wanted to let others know that they might still have a chance to get in on the first batch, if Sennheiser ships him the full 50.
